418 Nuclear Applications of Electrochemical Engineering


Description:
This session covers developments in the applications of molten salts to nuclear fuel processing, high temperature heat transfer and storage, and molten salt fueled nuclear reactors. This includes pyroprocessing of nuclear fuel as well as emerging nuclear applications for MSR and FHR reactors. It also includes application of molten salt for concentrating solar power (CSP) plants.
